Description
This easy to care for plant can adapt to all kinds of conditions (as long as its warm), making it a popular houseplant. The Red Bristle Philodendron has large green leaves with 5 distinct lobes to each leaf and a red bristle like hairs up the stems.
The juvenille leaves on the start as a solid leaf and developes its distinctive lobes as the plant matures. The Red Bristle Philodendron doesn't require a lot of watering. Allow the top layer of soil to dry between watering.
The Red Bristle Philodendron thrive in humid conditions, so ensure you protect your plant from the frost. Position in bright, indirect sunlight. If you plant is indoors mist regularly, and wipe the leaves with a damp cloth to keep the foliage looking shiny and fresh.
